Scale and Perspective-Assignment Three

Assignment Three was a tough one, but it might be my favorite because it really forced me to think.  I almost wrecked my car twice because I was searching, looking and thinking about scale, but it's all good.  I am reasonably pleased with the images; I am now motivated to do more and better with scale.

1/80 second @ f/22

18mm, ISO 200

As I said in class, this was my son's idea.  I think it worked well and he got a kick out of the final result.

1/40 second @ f/9

50mm, ISO 200

This was taken right outside the doors of Filmmakers, the night Ivette took us out for remedial scale and perspective instruction.

1/40 second @ f/16

50mm, ISO 200

The photo we saw in class with the record album cover motivated me to pull all our albums off the shelf.  I think I found a good album to use; one of my favorites for sure.

42mm, ISO 200

I inherited a collection of antique postcards, so after class on Wednesday, I rifled through them, not really finding anything.  Upon a second riffling the next day, this jumped out at me.  My son's head and hands were the prop for the postcard, so I cropped the image to lose the hands and blond hair.  I'd like to work on making or finding something that can hold the postcards steady so that I can take my time to make a better image in-camera.

Again, just tooling around in the yard, I propped this can on the gas meter for this photo.  I am not thrilled with the exposure, but again, something to work on when there isn't a storm coming.

55mm, ISO 200

This was one of many photos that started with, "Here, put your hand here.  No, here.  NO HERE."
